With the request of $20 from the tooth fairy for the previous event with Mason.... I improvised. I was like, " uhh $20 bucks " Kids think our mouths are ATM machines I think. I went purse diving hoping I could rummage up some cash so I would not have to take a trip to the ATM at midnight. So I have this thing with purses. They are pits of no return. If it enters the purse, chances are it has fallen into the abyss and it is lost forever. Quietly, not to disturb the children ( or the tooth fairy's husband), I go into the extra room and unload the closet of purses. It is like a garage sale in this room. Everything from golf clubs, back massagers, air mattresses, and a closet full of the dreaded PURSES. These are not empty purses. They are FULL of CRAP. Here is a list of just a few Items that can be found in the purses....1. tanning lotion
2. planners ( that one makes me laugh out loud, since I obviously don't use them but keep buying the stupid things!)
3. CD's ( the back street boys WHAT???) obviously that purse is from a while ago
4. a mickey mouse pin
5. pirates of the Caribbean pin
6. nail files.
7. lotion.
8. bandaids
9. tooth picks
10. phone covers
11. erasers
12. a broken piece of our front door
13. clean and clear oil absorbing pads for your face
14. earrings
15. rings
16. empty gum packages
17. GI JOE men
18.swimming goggles
19.Disneyland napkins
20. ear phones ( 4 pairs all broken)
21.race cars, Lego's
22. school calenders
23. homework
24. receipts
25. Utah Valley Adventure coupon book ( sounds like super fun)
26.hair clips
27. diapers ( uhh my youngest is 8 has it been that long since I cleaned a purse?)
28.Flip flops
29. My all time favorite, get ready for this one...... A STUN GUN!!! Don't mess with me in a dark alley I beat you up.
Mission accomplished!!!
30. $18.00 ( a lot of quarters, but there was $18.00) How is that for dumpster diving :) The tooth fairy completed her mission . Children are smiling. There is peace in the land once again. Until our next facial injury.......

I can not believe that about Masons tooth! Yuck! that is the weirdest thing I've ever heard and yes, it's worth all the purse diving you had to do, poor kid, at least he's tough. Hold on to that tazer, you never know when you'll need it!
This pretty funny! You need to be on Let's Make a Deal [wait-show was way before your time] You could be a winner for sure!
I wanna know what the heck you're doing with a G I Joe in your purse? You seriously crack me up! I love that you did all this while Sterling was tucked quietly into bed...that is so Brett! They're never around for the emergencys! Love you guys!
